Especially when he's drunk. We all know, that Finns carry around huge knives to cut off the balls of polar bears, when they (the Finns that is) go on a binge.
Being a whiney user just might move you from the "human" to the "polar bear" category.
Many current artillery shells have high trajectories that go several km in altitude.
Yes, well I can certainly imagine that something like a Haubitzer would lob a shell several kilometers into the air.
Heard a story about a test with a Haubitzer, where they fired a shell more or less directly at a tank almost a kilometer away; according to the story, the tank rolled over some 30 or 40 times...
Well, that's easy. Yoda has the Force and a light saber, Golum has a lisp!
Other than that, CG Golum is a computer generated image mapped on top of an actor, which makes his movements a lot more realistic. Or maybe they just got a really ugly person to play Golum... you never can tell, can you?
Can you make this run from/boot from a USB-keychain (those that has uptowards 1 GB of flash-RAM)? Okay, the ones I've seen are USB 1.1, so it's slow as hell, but at least you'd be able to have easy writable storage, and once you had it running you could store your preferences.
And why yes, I did submit this as an "ask slashdot" with a lot more detail, but it was rejected:-/
My point is that you can't compare Linux to Windows; that's like comparing a 2.0 L engine to a car. Add various stuff to it however, and you end up with a car, that you can compare to the other car.
Linux is a kernel. Windows is an entire operating system.
Add a bunch of various GNU/BSD/Whatever programs, and you end up with something, that sometimes are better than Windows, and sometimes with something that isn't.
The thing I love about this is the explenation I got from Microsoft support one day.
Had just installed the patch for Outlook 2000, that installed those filters.
Not wanting that fucking filter, I called them and asked how to remove it.
-You can't. -Why not? -Because it's hardcoded. If you can remove the filter, it can be removed via a macro. -But I've disabled macros in Outlook. -Yes, but they can be enabled again. -What? By a macro? -Yes. -So let me get this straight. You can make a macro that enables macros, if macros have been disabled in Outlook? -Yes.
Then I hung up. Not sure if I got a nobrain supporter or if she was telling me the truth, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if she did.
And just out of curiosity - what the fuck do you need a macro for in Outlook? What about in an e-mail? And please, before you answer the questing regarding the e-mail please shove all html-e-mails up someones ass, where they belong!
Some of the Russian Venera and Luna probes took the first approach--deliberately crashing into Venus or the Moon, respectively.
Yeah! And it's fucking annoying walking around in your garden when all of a sudden some mother fucking hoomaan researcher decides that YOUR garden is the perfect spot to CRASH their junk into!
Lost me a perfectly good Rover that way, and they STILL haven't returned my calls on that one!
Due to the troubles of Walnut Creek, abysmal sales and so on,
FreeBSD went out of business and was taken over by BSDI who sell another troubled OS. Now BSDI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
It gets worse. Some of, if not THE, most powerfull magnets are found in your hard drive... right next to the platters.
What about the "no motor" fans?

Seem to remember an article on/. about those, where they had a magnet at the tip of the blade and the "drive motor" in the four corners of the fan casing?
The flightless bipedal mammal, that will hunt you down, kill your offspring and try to make you extinct if you hunt it is NOT, repeat NOT, the smartest thing to hunt - not if you're interested in your species' survival...

Damn ...

Imagine HER on a drunken binge!
Other than that, I'm rather impressed by the moderation on my comment
Offtopic=1, Flamebait=1, Troll=1, Funny=7, Overrated=3, Total=13.
Seriously; it's three minutes since I read that comment, and I'm still laughing!
Thank you very much for saving my day (and night as it's 5:15 am here).

Easy, you just film it in exactly the same way Neaderthals don't.
Well, that's easy. Yoda has the Force and a light saber, Golum has a lisp!
... you never can tell, can you?
Other than that, CG Golum is a computer generated image mapped on top of an actor, which makes his movements a lot more realistic. Or maybe they just got a really ugly person to play Golum
Like I said, it "leaves your porn out in the open".
It's a fairly simple sentence, so it shouldn't be that hard to understand.
Unfortunately it's not housebroken, so it will piss on your computer, hump the legs of your visitors, and even leave your porn out in the open!
LOL :-)
... now I'm trolling again, right?
Just how does two questions regarding localization and usage qualify as trolling?
Oh damnit
Damnit! That's another question, and questions are a sure sign of trolling, right?

Has anyone translated the distro to English or some other language than Spanish?
Has anyone here tried it for that matter?
I'm not (unless you want to mix in BSD/whatever).

Yeah! Who do they think they are?
And why the fuck do they decide, what language you should learn in school, or which side of the road to drive, let alone what currency to use?!?
Sheesh! The nerve of some people.
Ehm ... in a word:
No.

He threw an entire library AND a Boeing 747 at them.
Unfortunatly he was labled a terrorist, his ruling was overturned and he has since been dissapeared from the public!

We could just use some of the anti-matter to get rid of some of the population AND get energy from it as well!

Anybody seen any comparative tests of those?
What? Haven't you payed attention? What the hell do you think those "holier than thou" religious zealots are doing? Not killing?
Is it a plane? Is it SuperMan? No! It's a BIRD!

1024x768 is no way NEAR full size! That's not even 14" diagonal, and the US is a couple of thousand MILES wide.
Next time get your act together.
